  1. My God, Donatella. You are on a roll today.
    What is this with Joe Biden? Joe Biden
    is an opportunist, a loudmouth, an anti-intellectual.
    has no interest in actual history (since he thinks that FDR gave televised chats, current events, or policy any more than dropping the F bomb on the healthcare bill.
    He is an attention junkie, a reality show wannabe with obvious plastic surgery scars who exploits his time in office for browbeating as well as playing on the fearful, marginal, poorly educated and those with a cultural inferiority complex on the left, all for his own political gain.

    just holding the mirror to the opposite party.
    turnabout is fair play as they say. 😉

    and again, I do not endorse Sarah Palin for President
    she is a good spokesperson for conservative women and has a gift for bringing out the bad in liberals apparently.

  2. dibs,

    true,
    I’ll say it here in print,
    Sarah Palin is not my candidate for President or Vice President. And neither was Biden, they’re both in the same boat for me, Sarah less so because she’s not a glad handing politician of the likes of Biden.

    my main point is the deplorable way in which one half of our nation sees the other and attempts in any way possible to demean and delegitamize the other by calling them stupid. It’s a ploy and I call it out when I see it. Especially when couched in an overarching hypocrisy like the NOW issue with women’s rights/ democratic politics.
    Bottom line, NOW is a woman’s group for Democratic Women,
    Republican women need not apply.

  3. My God, Legion. You are on a roll today.
    What is this with Sarah Palin? Sarah Palin
    is an opportunist, an exhibitionist, an anti-intellectual.
    has no interest in history, current events, or policy.
    She is an attention junkie, a reality show star who exploits her family as well as the fearful, marginal, poorly educated and those with a cultural inferiority complex.

    And burqas? That’s more of a family fight until it makes it hard to take a photograph for a drivers liscense.

  4. …oh, oh, I forgot,
    sorry,
    According to the new Administration, we’re not supposed to call this a “war” nor “terrorism” nor “muslim extremism”,
    what’s the phrase of the day for the people that want to tear down the Western world by sending women and children to blow themselves up?

    ah yes, “overseas contingency action” or something to that effect.

    even Ahmadenijaad is laughing at that one as he calls our President an “amateur”. nice.

  5. “As I stated before, I really don’t think Palin is the standard bearer of Republicans or Conservatives,”

    Legion, you’re right. In fact, read this……

    Palin Steers Rivals From Republican 2012 Casting Call
    April 9 (Bloomberg) — Sarah Palin, whose celebrity has the power to steer the spotlight from other Republican presidential hopefuls, is set to retake her party’s stage today as she considers a White House bid.
    The former 2008 vice-presidential candidate is the marquee speaker at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, an event unofficially billed as the first cattle call for those aspiring to take on President Barack Obama in 2012.
    Republicans heard from all the serious presidential contenders at this point in the election cycle four years ago.
    This time, three of the potential top candidates have sent
    regrets: Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.
    “The press has a seemingly insatiable appetite for all things Sarah, and at some point Republicans who want to fill the space at the head of our table need to overcome that appetite,”
